How my traineeship got me work ready

​A traineeship is the perfect way for young candidates to get a taste of on-the-job learning. Here Carla Fisher, who gained permanent employment as a result, charts how a traineeship set her firmly on her career path.

​How my apprenticeship was the best route into Nursing

“To anyone who is interested in a career in Nursing but who doesn’t have qualifications in the required subjects from school, I would highly recommend an apprenticeship. Valuable on-the-job learning each and every day, and the bonus of being paid for the privilege!”

​Supporting the homeless with the practical skills learned from my apprenticeship

Temporary Accommodation Officer
​Nottingham City Homes


“I’m sure my own experience of homelessness – and my desire then to help other children and families that find themselves in the same situation – gave me the hunger to learn for my apprenticeship. Not having enough food, living on the streets, dealing with the uncertainty – they’re all very real and immediate fears faced by the families I deal with, and ones with which I can fully empathise.”

“I joined NUH as a Health Care Assistant five years ago. It’s certainly hard work – with long shifts from 7am until 7.30pm – but I thoroughly enjoy caring for the patients in my charge."

Supporting apprentices led to an apprenticeship of my own

“An apprenticeship truly ticks all boxes: of course it teaches theory in the same way a college course might; but crucially, it provides the experience which employers jump at when selecting candidates.”

Not in the right career? It’s OK to change path!

“I had a false start on the wrong path but a switch to learning on the job as an apprentice has given me the best springboard for a career I love.”

“An apprenticeship gives you the opportunity to learn through direct experience. But it’s important to choose the right apprenticeship partner.”

Don’t ever give up on learning!

Admin Support Officer
​People Inclusion, Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust


“An apprenticeship will teach you so much; some of which you won’t even realise at the time. It really is like no other type of learning.”

Pursuing my dream career after redundancy

“When the company asked for voluntary redundancies, I saw it as my opportunity to pursue a long-held passion for working with children.”
